The law is not Turing complete
- jackpirate 15y agoThe law is not executing algorithms, so it can not in principle even be considered for Turing completeness. (Turing completeness means that it is equivalent to a Turing machine. I think you could probably argue that a police officer's execution of the law can be Turing complete, even given the fussiness of interpretation you describe.) I think the idea you're actually looking for is that: "No law can be complete" in the sense of Goedel's incompleteness theorems.
